More than half a month later.
A noticeable fluctuation of True Qi erged from within Song Chengyun, and after a long while, he slowly opened his eyes, filled with excitent.
"Qi Sea Realm, this is the Qi Sea Realm!"
"True Qi! It really exists!"
Song Chengyun had been cultivating for so long, stuck at the late Body Refining Realm for nearly two years, with no signs of breaking through to the Qi Sea Realm, he’d once doubted whether True Qi truly existed and had certain doubts about the authenticity of the Vermilion Bird Six Yang Technique.
Now, having finally broken through, he understood why he had been unable to break through before.
It was simply because there was no Heaven and Earth Primordial Qi.
And now, this mysterious place had such a dense concentration of Heaven and Earth Primordial Qi that it left him startled.
"If I could always cultivate here, my cultivation would soar..."
Song Chengyun thought to himself.
At this mont, Su Xin’s silhouette quietly erged.
Song Chengyun hurriedly bowed and cupped his hands, saying:
"Thank you for the great favor, Su God, my cultivation has successfully broken through to the Qi Sea Realm."
"Good."
Su Xin smiled contentedly.
During this period, he also researched a secret technique for absorbing others’ True Qi. This secret technique was not difficult, as he hadn’t considered the subsequent steps of refining others’ True Qi. If such a secret technique truly existed, that step should be the most difficult.
Considering his monstrous physique, Su Xin wasn’t worried about any aftereffects, and since he only needed to absorb a little, he didn’t bother with complexities. He rely modified the part of the Infinite Dragon Elephant Technique that absorbed Heaven and Earth Primordial Qi to absorb others’ True Qi instead.
This modification wasn’t extensive.
Nor was it difficult.
So it only took ten or so days to successfully implent.
However, this technique was still theoretical, as he hadn’t truly used it yet, temporarily uncertain if it would be effective.
Su Xin extended his hand, gently pressing it on Song Chengyun’s abdon, and said calmly:
"Let examine your cultivation."
Saying this, he quietly activated the technique to absorb True Qi, attempting to absorb the True Qi within Song Chengyun.
Suddenly, a massive suction force ca from his palm, causing the newly refined small amount of True Qi within Song Chengyun, which was circulating along a specific trajectory, to wildly surge toward Su Xin’s palm due to the sudden powerful suction.
This True Qi was easily absorbed by Su Xin.
Song Chengyun showed a painful expression but still stood firmly, not daring to move.
Su Xin withdrew his hand, standing calmly.
Carefully sensing the insignificant bit of True Qi that just entered his body, in the face of his enormous amount of True Qi, this bit was as small as a speck of dust in the vast ocean, inconspicuous, and unable to affect the vast ocean at all.
His True Qi even instinctively wanted to expel this small amount, but of course, Su Xin wouldn’t allow such a thing to happen.
It took him a long ti to acquire this bit of True Qi.
If lost, he’d have to wait a few more days.
So, Su Xin deliberately controlled his True Qi to actively avoid it, allowing this small amount of True Qi to invade his body.
Normally, when soone’s True Qi enters the body, it causes severe erosion, akin to concentrated sulfuric acid flowing inside.
This is why True Qi is so destructive to ordinary Martial Artists, creating such a disparity in strength.
This is also why being injured by others’ True Qi easily results in severe internal injuries; even when external wounds heal, the continued erosion from others’ True Qi can worsen the condition.
Su Xin voluntarily removed his True Qi defense, this action on anyone else would be extrely unwise.
Soone with weak cultivation would easily be eroded by others’ True Qi, resulting in severe internal injuries, healing would be extrely difficult.
Soone with strong cultivation would, with a strong body, not easily be injured by weaker True Qi, but allowing others’ True Qi to invade is absolutely not beneficial.
Unless the body is extraordinarily monstrous.
Just like Su Xin at this mont...
When that small amount of True Qi invaded the flesh, it originally wanted to erode the flesh but faced the monstrous bodily activity and Life Force, True Qi was instead devoured and absorbed by the flesh.
This happened in an instant.
Almost as soon as Su Xin released his True Qi defense, True Qi automatically invaded and was directly devoured by Su Xin’s body instinctively.
"Ding! Progress on [Harming Others for Personal Gain] 1."
"Ding! Congratulations host, task [Harming Others for Personal Gain] completed, reward of one supernatural ability awakening opportunity, would you like to use it?"
Su Xin slightly smiled inwardly, saying:
"Use it!"
"Ding! Awakening supernatural ability [Harming Others for Personal Gain]"
[Harming Others for Personal Gain LV1: When killing intelligent life, gain a tenth of their remaining lifespan.]
[Note: If the other party resurrects or has other abilities resisting death, the premise does not hold, and this ability will not take effect.]
"Hmm? This ability..."
Su Xin’s eyes stirred slightly.
For now, he didn’t consider upgrading his ability but looked at Song Chengyun and asked:
"How do you feel now?"
Song Chengyun looked a bit pale and said:
"I feel... as if my True Qi... is gone, I probably need to cultivate anew."
Su Xin consoled: "Don’t worry, just continue cultivating here. With such abundant Heaven and Earth Primordial Qi and so many Spirit Stones, it’s enough for you to cultivate True Qi again."
"Alright, thank you, Su God."
Song Chengyun, undaunted, nodded.
As Su Xin’s subordinate, the greatest benefit was not having to worry about life or death, let alone the minor issue of True Qi depletion.
After instructing Song Chengyun to continue cultivating, Su Xin himself went to his exclusive palace, sealed by him and accessible only to himself.
